My newest pet - Harvey George. Found him on a car at work, took him in and showed him off, let him go in the bamboo patch on the edge of the property. Four days later he showed up at the side door hanging out near the sidewalk. Figured I'd give him a home. Hey, it's gettin' cold out there, kiddies, and food's gonna be scarce soon.

And here's H-G being checked out by my bro's AmStaff. She's not the jealous type.

I'm sorry to say that little Harvey George left us Sunday morning around 11:30. She (it was a she after all) is survived by four egg cocoons, eleven crickets who're probably throwing a parade as we speak, and me. She was a very fun girl, loved to explore and hang upside down, and I let her roam (within reason) just about every day. Can't say I'm not a little sad.

Really? Works fine here. I'll fix it later if it's not working for anyone else, have to Skype mumsy now - can't be Internetting while she's chatting about the dogs, heavens to Betsy that would be untoward!

Not much of a story, to be honest. Just kind of happened on my way home from work yesterday. I was just driving along listening to some of that heavy rock music when out of nowhere my car starts dragging on the pavement. It then whipped violently to the right but thankfully came to a soft landing in a nice muddy ditch. Some shit happened to the ball joint and axle or whatever. The good thing about this is that I was supposed to take my girlfriend to a doctors appointment that day but it got canceled so I went to work. If I woulda taken her, this would have happened on the way there, on the highway most likely. With my son in the car, no less.

Edit: I also spoke with someone at the shop and it's only gunna cost $550 to get it fixed. Cosmetics be damned, I just need a car that rides.
